Carl Murray was kind enough to inform me that a release candidate of version 0.10 of Fuse, the popular Spectrum emulator, is now available for download. The PSP version will be released in due time; in the meantime, just glancing over the list of changes, here are some of the features that are likely to affect it:

• New upd765 FDC emulation; all known +3 DSK images now work
• Loading acceleration

Emulation core improvements

• Reading from the 128K’s memory control port causes that byte to be written back to the port
• Reading the AY data port on the +2A/+3 is the same as reading the register port
• NMI causes Z80 to unHALT
• Emulate C, H and P/V flags on repeated IO instructions
• Fix crash when using Interface 1 on unoptimised Fuse builds

Miscellaneous improvements:

• Loader detection now works with the Digital Integration loader
• Revert Pentagon 128 to being the “base” machine without extra ROMs
• Updated +3e ROMs
• Allow DivIDE, custom ROMs, Kempston mouse status and Simple 8-bit IDE interface to be saved in snapshots
• Better (but probably not perfect) TS2068 contention
